Summary: | The AMTC Australian Mammal Species List contains two sheets: a main species/subspecies list and an auxiliary list of unnamed taxa. The contents of the ‘Other Common Names’ column were originally sourced from mammal species accounts compiled by experts for the forthcoming publication: Strahan’s Mammals of Australia (4th Edition). The AMTC acknowledges that the listed mammal common names are not complete because they will differ depending on the cultural heritage, language and knowledge practices of First Nations Peoples across Australia. The Australian Mammal Species List is updated annually, and we welcome suggested changes and additions, especially from traditional biocultural knowledge custodians, as we aspire to most accurately represent the depth and diversity of traditional knowledge, customs and practices.
